Golden beginnings

The engagement of Ralph Lendl Tanchip and Mariell Chuateco

- By KITTEN ZAPATA

In every Ting Hun, tradition sets the tone, but for Ralph Lendl Tanchip and Mariell Chuateco, it was also about writing their own modern love story.

Their journey toward the engagement ceremony began with one guiding question: How do we blend tradition with our personal style? For the couple, the answer was simple; honor what matters, refine what doesn’t, and celebrate in a way that feels authentically theirs.

“As much as possible, we wanted to keep most traditions,” Mariell shared. “But also make it modern, skip the ones that don’t make sense anymore, and make everything practical and most importantly, stylish.”
